Your next home could be here – join us in Newcomb

Julie and Marianne are two warm, friendly sisters excited to welcome a new housemate into their beautiful new Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) home in Newcomb. If you enjoy a peaceful, positive household with room for gentle fun, creativity, and meaningful connection, this might be the perfect place for you. 

They’re hoping to find someone who values kindness, respect, and a supportive home environment, someone who enjoys their own space but also appreciates light social moments with the people they live with. 

About the home 

This beautifully set out SDA home offers comfort, accessibility, and a peaceful place to call home – and Julie and Marianne are already enjoying all it has to offer. When asked what she loves most about the new house, Julie smiled and said, “I love the kitchen, it’s so big.” She also shared how happy she is with her new bedroom and spacious bathroom. 

Marianne is just as delighted. She nodded enthusiastically when talking about her new green feature wall in her bedroom and the large lounge area where she can relax and spend time with others. She also nodded “yes” when asked if she liked how wide the hallway is – wide enough for her to do a full circle, which she thinks is awesome. 

The home is conveniently located less than one kilometre from Bellarine Village Shopping Centre and nearby medical facilities, with the centre of Geelong just a short trip away. 

The home features: 

• Three large bedrooms, each with a private ensuite
• Heating and cooling throughout
• Onsite overnight assistance for safety and support
• Fully maintained property and garden
• Secure tenancy in a modern, purpose-built setting 

It’s a warm, welcoming environment designed to support independence, comfort, and everyday wellbeing. 

Who we’re looking for 

Julie and Marianne would love a housemate who: 

• Is kind, respectful, and friendly
• Enjoys a calm home but is happy to share relaxed social time
• Appreciates routine, positivity, and a supportive environment
• Values a home where everyone feels welcome, safe, and comfortable 

Meet Julie 

Julie is a gentle, warm-hearted 61-year-old who loves a peaceful, enjoyable daily routine. She thrives in a calm home surrounded by friendly, patient people and enjoys a mix of creative activities, outings, and relaxing downtime. 

Julie’s interests include: 

• Having her hair dyed and nails painted – she loves pampering days
• Going to the theatre and cinema
• Attending church at times, watching services, and listening to Christian music
• Word search puzzles
• Colouring in and painting
• Shopping trips and visiting cafés
• Baking and arts and crafts
• Spending quality time with family
• Watching Disney movies 

Julie would enjoy living with someone who values a calm home and is considerate of the people they share it with. 

Meet Marianne 

Marianne is a fun-loving, imaginative 65-year-old who brings personality and joy to the home. She may be a little shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, her playful sense of humour and bright smile quickly appear. 

She loves dressing up, collecting colourful jewellery, and spending time with her treasured toy monkeys, proudly calling herself the “Mother of the Monkeys.” 

Marianne’s interests include: 

• Baking with support
• Dressing in colourful outfits
• Her favourite themes: witches, baby dolls, mermaids, trolls, and monkeys
• Watching Disney movies
• Café visits and sunny day walks
• Shopping for clothes (and new monkeys!)
• Being part of conversations with support staff
• Hugging her soft toys
• Listening to Elvis – especially “You’re the Devil in Disguise”
• Listening to ABBA, which reminds her of her sister Margaret
• Enjoying stories read aloud
• Having someone sing to her, like “Silent Night”
• Wheeling herself around the home and garden
• Imaginative play, storytelling, and sharing memories
• Being supported to express her love, emotions, and grief 

Marianne would enjoy living with someone who appreciates creativity, fun, and a supportive environment. 

A home filled with warmth, creativity and respect 

Julie and Marianne share a strong sisterly bond and are excited about welcoming someone new into their home. They are supported by dedicated staff who help create a positive, safe, and inclusive environment. If you’re looking for a peaceful home where you can be yourself, enjoy meaningful connections, and share simple, joyful moments with two wonderful sisters, Julie and Marianne would love to meet you.
